NDIS Support for Community Access and Participation

Community access is a key part of the NDIS vision to help people with disability live a full and connected life. At EnableU, we believe that every person deserves to feel included, valued, and empowered in their community. That’s why we provide personalised support services that help you get involved in activities, connect with others, and explore your interests across the Sutherland Shire.

What Is Community Participation Under the NDIS?

Community participation refers to NDIS-funded supports that help individuals with disability take part in everyday activities outside the home. These supports are typically funded under the “Increased Social and Community Participation” or “Core Supports” category of an NDIS plan.

EnableU offers community-based support services tailored to your personal goals and lifestyle. Whether it’s going to a class, joining a club, or simply visiting a café, our team is here to make your experiences safe, comfortable, and enjoyable.

Examples of Supported Community Activities

Our experienced disability support workers can assist with a wide range of community activities, including:

• Attending social or recreational groups



• Going shopping or to the local markets



• Visiting family or friends



• Volunteering at a local organisation



• Taking part in classes, sports, or hobbies



• Exploring local parks, events, or libraries

We tailor our approach based on your mobility, communication preferences, and cultural background to ensure every outing is a positive experience.

Building Confidence and Social Skills

Participation is about more than just getting out—it’s about building skills, boosting self-esteem, and feeling more connected. With the right support, many participants gain confidence in navigating public spaces, communicating with others, and managing their daily routines independently.

EnableU support workers are trained to encourage choice and control, while stepping in when you need assistance. Our aim is to help you do more of what matters to you—on your terms.

Transport Assistance for NDIS Participants

We also provide transport support as part of community access services. Whether you’re attending a medical appointment, an activity, or a social gathering, our team ensures you get there safely and on time.

Transport may be delivered directly by our support workers, or arranged through local accessible options depending on your plan and preferences.

Local Knowledge, Local Support

EnableU support workers are based right here in the Sutherland Shire. They know the best local venues, disability-friendly facilities, and transport networks—ensuring that your outings are as smooth and stress-free as possible.

We currently serve clients in Sutherland, Miranda, Cronulla, Engadine, Caringbah, and all surrounding suburbs.

Culturally Inclusive Community Support

We recognise that every participant has different cultural expectations when it comes to community involvement. Our multilingual team respects your background and works with you to find activities that align with your values and interests.

How to Include Community Access in Your Plan

If you’re unsure whether your NDIS plan includes community participation support, EnableU can assist. We can help you understand your plan, explore available funding, and prepare for plan reviews to ensure this important area of support is not overlooked.
